Strong Grace
Richard Newton Sherrer 1951 (Easton)
Remember Jesus Christ,
Had risen from the dead;
From David was enticed,
In the Gospel was fed.
Which I am suffering,
Being bound with chains;
But His Word buffering,
For enduring the pains.
I endure everything,
For sake of the elect;
That also God may bring,
Salvation to select.
For eternal glory,
Through Christ with salvation;
For the judge and jury,
Makes a new creation.
For being trustable,
If we had died with Him;
Then we are capable,
Having spiritual vim.
For we will also live,
Enabled to endure;
Knowing He will forgive,
Redeemed forevermore.
With Him we also reign,
But if we would deny;
Then it would be a stain,
Because we would defy.
For if we are faithless,
He still remains faithful;
A creed makes us flawless,
When no longer a fool.
